shut off and the Technical Assistance Centre contacted
immediately

the hydraulic system is higher than 1 bar. If necessary,
restore the pressure by opening the filling tap (section
8 - "General boiler layout" - 1)
- wait for the pressure to increase: check on the boiler di-
splay that the value reaches 1-1.5 bar; then close the
filling tap (section 8 - "General boiler layout" - 1).
If the boiler is not used for a long period of time, it is recom-

necessary to fill the siphon in the boiler. If the boiler is
installed where the ambient temperature can remain
above 30°C for prolonged periods, fill the siphon after
